As I lay on the couch trying not to be ill... I thought I'd put on HAIRSPRAY. We TiVoed it in HD (man - we are such geeks). Thought the 3year old would dig it - she likes musicals. The husband and I saw the stage version years ago - so I knew there wasn't anything bad in it.
So we're watching and John Travolta, as the mom, and Christopher Walken, as the dad are on the screen.
The kid says, "Where's the mommy?"
I said, pointing to Travolta in drag, "Isn't that the mommy?"
Soph says,"NO. That's a daddy. She has two daddies?"
I say, "Yes, honey. Some people have two daddies and some have two mommies and some have one daddy and one mommy."
Soph said, 'Okay."
Cool.
On the ill front - poor Soph got sick while we were in Yosemite on Friday and she woke up throwing up on Saturday. Around 10:30 when she couldn't hold down water, we decided to leave a day early. About 10 minutes into the drive - I did something I haven't done since college -- puked on the side of the road. It was a pretty disgusting ride home. Bless the husband for getting us home quickly.
Soph is back to herself today. I, on the otherhand, am not...

My heart goes out to you. Being sick on vacation is very bad. On the plus side, it is usually humorous later, especially if it involves puking. It gets funnier the more time passes. Like the time I got stomach flu at my Uncle's on Thanksgiving with a three-month-old, or the time I tossed my cookies out the window of my husband's car on highway 17. Yes, all hilarious in retrospect. At least you were smart enough to have your significant other stop the car. Now go get well you poor thing.
Oh, puking is never fun. Hope you're all feeling better ASAP!
